Surveillance awareness day is a proposal for the English Misplaced Pages to take special steps to promote awareness of global surveillance on February 11, 2014. That date is chosen to coincide with similar actions being taken by organizations such as Mozilla, Reddit, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
If this proposal reaches completion, it will be presented to the entire community for approval, via a watchlist notice or a sitenotice shown to logged-in users.
This proposal attempted to implement the following suggestion:
"A message is most effective when it matches the format of the media. We're an encyclopedia. On Feb 11, I suggest we fill our front page with articles, blurbs and news about mass spying and privacy. That will send a strong message, and help educate people. It's sort of like what we do on April 1, except serious instead of foolish."
